There is no need to do a flush. Nutrients will break down in curing. Just let her grow for 2 Weeks longer and go on feeding with molasses and a PK product.

I would proceed as follows. Best if you have osmosis water and mix the stale water for 24 hours (after 24 hours the chlorine has evaporated somewhat) to an Ec value of 0.2. Then add Cal / Mag until the Ec is 0.4. This is your source of water, so you can flush

Hello.. Hope you are well.. I think RQS Quick one has a harvest time of 8-9 wks from germination in optimum conditions.. So she's very close atm.. As to flushing, u just give her plain water ph'd @6-6.5 for 7-10 days and she will b great..stay safe n gud luck.. 👍🍀

Hey there, given you're growing in soil, i would start the flush early, so about 2 weeks prior to harvest. That's because soil keeps much more of the excess nutrients stored than the other mediums like coco or peat for which a week is sufficient. (Pure hydro is easiest with 2 or 3 days, as you're exchanging the whole growing media with a reservoir change.) Some people just flush with pure water, others flush with a lower amount of nutrients, which is what i would personally recommend when it comes to soil. Reason is that you don't want to starve the plant fully, when it needs the most nutrients. Then again you also wouldn't want to give her too many nutrients when you're actually trying to remove the nutrient-buildup in the growing medium (and want the plant to metabolize what she already has inside her). Depending on your water (if using tap or RO) I would start out with around an EC of 0.4 (with RO) and then with the next waterings move downwards. Additional products that break up salts, like florakleen or AN's flawless finish can also help with removing the salt buildup from the growing medium, but obviously shouldn't be used together with nutrient-solution (unless it's "ripening" or a similar product that's meant to be made together with a flushing agent). When it comes to the "when" i wouldn't look at the pistils (the hairs), but actually at the trichomes themselves..

Bonjour Que veut tu dire par Flush ? Désolé pas sur d'avoir bien compris la question Rincer ? Si cela question demandé est quand rincer la plante, le temps de Floraison de ta plante est de 5 - 6 Semaines. Alors tu peux commencer a rincé ta plante a partir de la 4 ème semaine de floraison, il faut rester attentif aux pistils c'est eux qui te disent quand la plante est mûr . J'éspère que ce conseils va t'aider plen de courage pour ta floraison man 😊

Hey J, You're plants coming along nicely. Usually these Quick Ones are around 8-10 weeks once they're ready to chop. You're pistils are looking about 50% discolored and starting to shrivel up. So id give it at least another 7-9 days and see if they're at around 80% colored and shriveling. If you can get some more trichrome photos that'll help you decide too, if you're getting some milky ones and a few amber colored ones it's definitely time to start flushing. Happy harvesting. ✌️
